and upside down today. Have you noticed that? Nothing seems to be right today. Everything's just a little bit off. And you don't notice it until you see all the examples, but I'll give you some as we go.

So I'd like to start out with a big damn you, damn you, to Andres Backhouse, who I talk about often because he's great on data analysis for any of the stuff in the news. But he made me retweet Aaron Rupar's tweet and I can't forgive him for that. But it's the first time I've unironically retweeted him, I think.

If you don't know who Aaron Rupar is, he's a character who is, let's say, interesting. We'll just keep it at that. But normally I would not agree with his tweets. Here he was responding to Nancy Pelosi's speech after the Chauvin-Floyd verdict. And Nancy Pelosi managed to reach into this big basket of things that you could say and managed to pull out the only thing that was wrong. You could have gone in a hundred different directions and not messed this up as badly as she did, to the point where Aaron Rupar is retweeting you with condemnation.

She said, "Thank you, George Floyd, for giving your life for..." I'm not even going to finish it. But let's just say in the history of politicians saying dumb things, this was notable. Like even her own side had to say, "We're out." If you're Nancy Pelosi and Aaron Rupar is listening to you and the first thing he says is "I'm out. I'm out. I don't want any part of this," you've really gone off. You've gone too far.

In other news, there's a Norfolk police lieutenant who was fired because it was leaked that he donated some money to Kyle Rittenhouse's defense and gave him some words of encouragement. He got fired for that. He got fired for an opinion that was backed by the video for a person who is presumed innocent until proven guilty. And he got fired for it. So that's the Norfolk Police Department for you. That's pretty pathetic.

Now here's the good news. If you are, let's say, a police union and your contracts come up, I'm assuming the union does the negotiating for the police contracts, what would you ask for in terms of a raise this coming round? I feel like 30 percent would be the right number, right? That doesn't mean they'll be able to get it because there are lots of forces pushing back. But I would say that the police unions have a rock so
